Abstract Objective: Femoral artery cannulation is the most commonly used approach for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in robotic cardiac procedures. However, without adding a distal perfusion cannula, leg ischemia can occur..

Abstract Objective: Lower-limb ischemia is a complication of minimally invasive cardiac surgery with femoral cannulation. Herein, we verified our strategy using distal perfusion cannulation (DPC) against this complication. Methods: We..

Abstract Distal perfusion cannulas, DPCs, are increasingly used to prevent limb ischemia, frequent and potentially serious complication on peripheral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) support. We report the case..
